What do you believe is the purpose of a college education? I believe the purpose of a college education is to provide students with the lessons and experience they need to be successful in what ever field they are going into. What does it mean to be educated? I think there is a difference between being educated and having knowledge or being knowledgable, I think that learning all of the information necessary for basic schooling is what being educated is traditionally. What experiences have you had with education that led you to this belief? Experiences I have had with people who haven't had a "traditional" education lead me to this belief because although they did not technically have much of an education they were wise and knowledge.
